Hi! I'm new here, so I hope I'm in the right page. My question is, On your Engine application suffix codes. States, "engine codesreserved with the "MA-6" option, (heavy duty) clutch. Says, (none known to have been produced. I own a 1969 SS/RS 396/375,4-speed, Camaro. Block pad stamped "T-0215KC". Doesn't this de-code as stated?? Please advise...thanks!!

I'm just stating what's "stamped" on my big block. I've read alot of report findings in books and articles alike, and there were alot of Camaros built with odd ball options. I doubt everything was doucumented that was going out the door. I have a X-22 Camaro that is stamped on the front pad "KC" and which is not a "re-stamp". I seems all the comments are being made on what everybody has read, well, I have the real thing right in front of me. Even on the car shows on TV, they say that alot of different cars were made and not accounted for. Who knows I guess.......

Camaroman, just curious: how do you know it's not a restamp? I'm curious to see a pic. I have an L78 with a "KA" stamp that some literature says was for the L78 and other literature says only for L34. CRG data says L34. It's undoubtedly an L78 (visually verifed 4-bolt main caps). I have some that say it is an authentic stamp and others who say restamp. I would be curious to see a pic of your stamp. Thanks.

Hi! I'm new here and post was not removed by me. I joined the group for further knowledge in the 1969 Camaro hobby. I grew up with this era car and have always admired the car for its power and looks. I have pics of the pad on the supposedly "KC" stamped block. Just having a hard time "up-loading them. I got to thinking, just say block isn't a true "KC" stamped block. Why would someone stamp that particular "lettering" Who knows..........otherwise, I believe block could be a "JH" block, 396/manual trans. Block pad has paint on it and alternator is in the way, but I'm going to get a closer look at it Sunday. We just finished this car, 7 year project, all orginal correct car. Don

Camaroman 1969, the photos to upload have to be less than 100kb (pretty small) or they won't upload. Try emailing one to yourself and when the PC asks if you want to shrink it to a smaller size, click on the smallest size (hopefully less than 100kb) Then save that emailed photo to your desktop and then try uploading that one to the post.

You might also want to start a 'web Album' There are lots of programs that allow you to upload a large file to the Web to keep important pics available. Picassa is free from Gogle, Webshots is another. Then you can link to the picture and it wil bring up a separate picture of any size, in a separate browser window. A little tricky at first but gets easier.

Actually, the size limit on this forum is 150 kb per picture.4 attachments per post max and the total of all of them can't be more than 300 KB.

If you resize the pics right, they don't have to be big files to be clear. Just downsize them to 700 or 800 pixels wide and keep the jpg quality factor lower (50 or 60 is fine). The jpg quality factor is key - it takes up a lot of space at 80-90, but it doesn't really make a better picture. http://www.irfanview.com/ works well and stores them with a little better picture quality than some of my other photo programs and is free. And remember to crop the pictures first.
